A Stochastic Simulation of the Decision to Retweet
TLDR
It is found that the stochastic nature of the retweeting decision contributes to a large amount of uncertainty, however, the genetic algorithm is able to increase the scale on which a message is being retweeted significantly.

The Role of Emotions in Propagating Brands in Social Networks
TLDR
This work investigates how emotions function in social media using more than 30,000 brand marketing messages from the Google+ social networking site and extends upon earlier research by computing multi-level mixed effects models that compare the function of emotions across different industries.

A Genetic Algorithm to Optimize a Tweet for Retweetability
TLDR
This work simulates an artificial Twitter-like network with nodes deciding deterministically on retweeting a message or not, and finds that the algorithm consistently succeeds in significantly improving the retweetability of a message.

Evolved election forecasts: using genetic algorithms in improving election forecast results
TLDR
It is shown that the proposed method outperforms currently applied approaches and thereby provides an argument to tighten the intersection between computer science and social science, especially political science, further.

Zombie politics: evolutionary algorithms to counteract the spread of negative opinions
TLDR
This paper offers a genetic and a cultural algorithm that find the optimal mixture of treatments during the run of the simulation of a zombie outbreak in a society and shows that albeit far from being perfect, the cultural algorithm delivers superior performance at lower computational expense.
